Jay Chou F1 Concert 2012

It was a very last minute decision to go for this concert as somehow I manage to get free tickets. Destined to have to attend Jay Chou's gig! SHIOK!!!!! We got good spot and good view! Still missing it while I am writing this post!





And I went with my concert buddy.. LYNN!!!!


Nice view....


Watching F1 race before the concert.. It was deafening as the noise from the racing car was really ear piercing!! ZOOM!!!! VROOM!!!


Many staying at Fairmont had the luxury of watching the race.


And then... clock strikes 2300hr and the concert started!! 15 mins earlier than slated!! SCREAMS!!





























Jay Chou is never a failure to deliver good shows! Simply love his live performance! Jay did rocked the Padang down!!! WOOTS!!!

One Raffles Place Office Tower 2 Grand Opening

Tues 18 Sep 2012

One Raffles Place, Office Tower 2 & 1 Altitude Viewing Gallery 


It was a spectacular event. Graced by many reputable corporate figures as well as our Deputy Prime Minister Tharman. An eye opener for me although I was more like a "vase" that day as I do not know any of the guests at all. And so I took some photos. =)



Shikin, Amanda, me & Eunice (Thorn among the roses!)


Love Instagram as the filters really adds on to beautify photos. Everyone looking great in this pic!


The Marketing Team!! All geared up for the event. 

My major role that day was to welcome all guests at 1 Altitude's Viewing Gallery. Being the advance party, I have nothing to do and so I started to take pictures. Allow me for cam whoring as I was dressed up that day and with beautiful scenery, I should take some pictures! Haha..





And I manage to see sunset!! =)

Night view from viewing gallery.






Pyrotechnic show was the surprise for event!


Me with Shikin


Best shot!! It was F1 season and I manage to snap a night view with view of the race track. =)

Lost

I am lost.

I lose the motivation and drive I had initially. Things are not smooth sailing recently at work. There are people who are so unprofessional that they take things personally. It's really hard to work with these people.

I guess majority of the people who reads this might agree. Boss is one of the most important factor in a work environment. I need the support and directions. I can do the job but with no directions. When things are submitted, it gets rejected and I have to redo. I get feedback that it's not good enough. I need to know the directions you want then I can work. If not, I can propose 100 ideas and still, not a single one will be accepted. It's so difficult to work like this when you are working solo with more than 5 external parties at a time and I got to see their face to work at times.

Many a times I am told not to do A by my boss. I will work with another colleague but was told to do B. When I feedback I am told to do A again but as a intermediary. So why say it in the first place when it is back to square one? Why can't managers of 2 different departments tie things down properly?

What's best was when you pour your woes, colleagues tell you to just do it. And it sounds as if every single f*** shit is my fault and me being ridiculous and unreasonable. I just want to rant and vent my frustrations. Even without you telling me what to do I'll still do it and find ways to rectify the issue. Can't I just rant? As a colleague, can't you just lend a listening ear?

I am seriously lost. I don't know how to continue working like that. I am disappointed with myself for not doing good enough. I think I need a break if not I don't know how long more I can take it.

Education Milestone - RMIT Bachelor's Degree in Business Marketing Convocation

This is a great part of my education milestone. The greatest achievement so far. And the best results I ever achieved. I achieved the goal I set 2 years ago - Bachelor's Degree in Business Marketing (Part Time) with Distinction. Today, I stand among the first and only 8 in my cohort to walk up the stage to achieve this honour with pride and glory.






Thanks to my great Buddy Jun who worked together with me through this 2 years. We had a tough journey but today we stand here victorious. Thanks to my cousin Esther for coming to grace this special day too. You are indeed a role model that I look up to.

Did not take much photos that day. Somehow, I felt that it is not the greatest honour to be very proud of nor to brag about. What is a degree grad today? How much value does it carry? I kept asking myself if this is the finale of my education milestone. After much persuasion and thinking over the past few days, this is definitely not the end. I have made up my mind to continue with MBA. Not now, but in time to come, I will go for it.

For now, I prepare for the day to come with many courses and goals to achieve before I can embark on my MBA with more concentration and more financial stability. 

Life is always a learning journey. Hence, never stop and never give up. =)
